Hawaii’s Bachelor Lt. Andy Baldwin and fiancee Tessa Horst have called off the engagement, according to In Touch Weekly.

“When the fantasy wore off and the reality set in, we both realized that we weren’t ready to be engaged,” Andy reveals exclusively to In Touch. “We’re taking things much slower.”

Tessa, 26, and Andy, 30, called off their engagement after a therapist suggested they do so. As of now, the relationship is still on, but social worker Tessa has postponed plans to move from San Francisco to Hawaii, where Navy doctor Andy is stationed.

“We are very much in love and committed to our relationship,” the couple continued in their statement. “With the possibility of reassignment to a new location, we decided it was not the ideal time for Tessa to uproot herself and move out [to Hawaii] right now. Our relationship continues to deepen, and we’re very hopeful about our future together.”

Andy also addressed his station in Hawaii: “I know that I have a year left and I may have the option of a three-year tour. There is also the option of a position in California. There is also a chance of me going back to finish my residency training. I am a firm believer that everything happened for a reason, and I am a firm believer that this happened in my life for a reason. Tessa came onto the show for a reason, and it is like a dream come true.”

Trivia tidbit: Of the 10 couples the ABC reality show has brought together, only two (season six’s Byron Velvick and Mary Delgado, and season seven’s Charlie O’Connell and Sarah Brice) are still together.

Hawaii’s Bachelor Lt. Andy Baldwin and his bride-to-be Tessa Horst are still together and looking mighty fine.

The couple competed in the “Cholo’s 2000 Swim” off the Hawaiian island of Oahu on Saturday. (Cholo’s restaurant organized the swim event — they serve homestyle Mexican cuisine.) Hundreds of people turned out to compete in and watch the 1.2 mile swim in the waters off Waimea Bay.

Both Andy and Tessa completed the swim in good time. Officer and a GentlemanAndy waited for his “rose” and greeted her with a hug and a kiss as she crossed the finish line.

You can check out this recent interview of Andy and Tessa with KITV 5 Island TV News, which aired on Thursday. Tessa reveals she’s going back home to California on Sunday (today) but will be back to move in with her handsome Navy doctor (rumored to be in August).

Tessa Horst, a San Francisco social worker, accepted the final rose — and a marriage proposal — from US Navy Lieutenant Andy Baldwin during Monday’s season finale of The Bachelor: Officer and a Gentleman.

The newlyweds-to-be are still together as they were spotted leaving NYC’s The Mercer Kitchen in SoHo on Tuesday night. Tessa will be moving to Hawaii with Andy, though.

Said Andy during his proposal on the finale, “I’ve always imagined this day, and this is beyond my wildest dream… I met this woman who makes me feel so happy and so unbelievably amazing. I want to say to you Tessa… Will you marry me?”

The Bachelor will be sending Tessa, 26, and Andy, 30, on a trip to the Inca Trail in Peru in honor of Tessa‘s mother Romana Li, who met her husband, Bruce Bartels, while hiking the Inca Trail.
